X²: The Threat

Items are shown in red if you do not have the means to carry them. Each item has a container size, S, M, L or XL. If your ship's cargo bay cannot carry containers of that size then you cannot buy the goods while trading from that ship.

In addition to the above container sizes, stations sold in shipyards come in containers designated ST size. To carry these you need a TL-class ship. You can buy one of these if you have enough money, or you can hire one; just contact the pilot for details. Whether the TL-class ship is yours or hired, it needs to be docked at the shipyard for you to be able to buy stations.
